There is considerable excitement
here over these arrests, and rumors
are current that a number of war
rants have been Issued for other men

i.i in n mimhpr nr hiirclaries and
Itheils which nave occurreu nere wr-
S ing Uie past few months. It Is snld

burglars Is in existence, with Par-
i rlsh at the head, anti tnat numurnuB
depredations can lie traced to the or
I ganlzatlon.
I The present arrests resulted from
I the theft of 610 pounds of hams and
bacon from Joseph Zivcr. A month
before this, about the same amount
had been stolen from C. T. Strana
han, who had been keepln close
watch of Parrish and some other men.
When the Ziver burglary and theft
occurred Mr. Stranahan explained
his suspicions and on Thursday night
It being learned that Parish had

WORK ON THE GOLCONDA.

A Long Tunnel Being Driven Under
Big Body of Ore Great Shoot of
Ore.
The Sumpter American, of the 18th
Inst., has the following to say of the
Golconda mine and the work being
done thereon:
It is not generally known that the
Wide West claim, adjoining the south
end line of the Golconda claim, be
longing to the Golconda company, has
never been explored, although all of
the outcrop of the big lode on the
Golconda property occurs on the for
mer claim. On the Golconda claim,
where is found all of the develop
ment work heretofore done on this
property, there Is no outcrop what
ever, while the boldest and the best
body of surface quartz on the great
lode" is found on the Wide West,
standing forth prominently through
out almost the entire length of this
claim. It was this great outcrop of
mineralized quartz, showing good sur
face values, that first attracted the
mining men of the district to the
values of this ground. This outcrop,
occurring on the apex of the hill,
could ( not be explored by tunnel
without driving through the Golcon
da claim, to the north end line of the
Wide West
At the present time the Golconda
management Is Just entering upon this
important stage of development Dur
ing the past year It has developed to
the south of any ore disclosed by the
former management, two good ore
shoots one of them being the best in
values, longest and widest of any
ore shoot heretofore disclosed by
this or any other company operating
the proporty. This has quickened
the conclusion formed because of the
outcrop, that the best part of the Gol
conda mine might yet be revealed
In the Wide West claim, under the
outcrop mentioned. Accordingly, de
velopment has been pushed In that di
rection as speedily as the same
could be done, and in the meantime
continue development or the ore
bodies heretofore disclosed near the
shaft on the tunnel level is now past
the south center end-stake or the Gol
conda and is entering West Side
ground, and within 200 or 300 feet
of the present face of this tunnel the
great outcrop will he reached. Fair
values are being obtained from this
drift as work progresses, the manage
ment stating that the vein is better
In place, the walls are more clearly
defined, and the gangue or better ap
pearance that at any other point since
leaving the big ore shoot on mis icvei
some 200 feet back, and that confi
dently expect great results from this
new line of development. If ex
perience gained by development In
oher mines of this district Is borne
out in this Instance, the largest and
best ore shoots ever discovered in the
Wide West claim, as every good pro
ducer has found Its richest and larg
est ore bodies under the most prom
inent groups.
The Golconda has driven the 400
level to within 3U feet as far south
from the shaft as the face of the tun
nel level drift described. It is the in
tention to finish the development
work under the outcrop by means of
this has located and demonstrated
the tunnel level drift first, and after
the ore bodies there, drop down to
the 400 level of the shaft and push
that drift under the Bame shoots with
all possible speed.
This new line of development work
will in no wise curtail the develop
ment of the ore shoots heretofore
disclosed In the Golconda claim, as
work will be continued at points there
with the same vigor as before. The
great shoot of ore exposed on the tun
nel level, which was first encountered
about the beginning of this year and
has been proved Tor a length or 250
feet and for a width of six to eighteen
feet, continues Just as good In the
stopes as onth o tunnel level where
first located, and holds forth Indica
tions of holding out to grass roots,
a distance of 160 feet above the high
est present stope. Assays taken
across eight feet and for a distance
of 70 feet In the highest part of the
stope Thursday, gave an average
value of $54.40. This Is the shoot
that is also opened on the 100 level,
and the 150 level, and Is being driven
for on the levels below.

CONSTANT DEVELOPMENT AND
RESULTS
A crew of men have been constantly ut work ever
since wo acquired this property and tbe Glasgow crosscut
Las now encountered and fully crosscut tbe ledge. In this;
ciosscut Ave have ojK;ned tip a body of tire sixteen feel In
width carrying: good commercial values.
In sraenkinp of commercial values we mean 'res
vb'.cb have a sufficient value lo pay for the extraction
milling and all other incidental expeures thereto, with
cm ugh of a margin left over to pay good dividends to the
s-oekholders.
This large body of ore was not in the nature of a
surprise, we simply expected it, as tbe surface develop
ments showed this same large body of ore, and there was
no reason why it should not be encountered in this cross
cut and at this depth.
FUTURE DEVELOPMENT
We are now turning to drift on the ledge to the west
from the ero.cut in order that, we may ojien up tbe richer
cies at a greater depth which are found on the surface
throughout the Bannockburn claim.
This line of development, we believe, will prove very
iuleresting to all who are interested, or may become inter
cited in the Highland mine, as it will certainly open up
ore bodies rich in quality and in large quantities.
It will demonstrate that the Highland will rank as one
of the largest producers in the district.
From now on the development work will lie com
paratively easy and not very expensive, as we will be
drifting along the ledge where the ground is much easier
io work than in the country rock which encases tbe vein.
Ta cit mouth will show a largo increase in our ore reserves.
FREE TRIP TO THE HIGHLAND
To any one who wishes to invest a reasonable sum of
money in the Highland mine, we will pay all traveling
e;cense to and from the mine for the purpose of his
making a personal examination.
In offering you a free trip to the Highland we feel
that this is proof within itself of the value of this prop
erty as it stands to reason that if wc di dnot have a good
mine there and all that we claim for jt we could not offer
( such an inducement.
We would lie only too glad to have each and every
on- who contemplates the investment of money in mines,
c me out and look over this property and "the district in
general. In offering to pay your expenses out here and
back we feel that wc are not running any risk whatsoever
as we know positively that no one, no matter how great
or conoervative an expert or mining engineer be may be,
could possibly, roughly speaking, "turn it down."
POOL YOUR INTERESTS
If you have not sufficient money yourself to justify
you in coming to the Highland to look it over before in
verting, we would suggest that you and your friends make
up a small pool and send one of your number out here
to look over the Highland. In this way we believe you
v i uld get absolute information as to tbe value of the prop
erty you invest your money in, and you will also have fl'i
opportunity to learn all about the reputation, standing'
and ability of the directors of the Highland Ciiiiiptuy.
OUR REFERENCE
Wo take pleasure in referring you to any bank, to;
it tss man, or mining man in our own eonununity.
